Rockin’ the Suburbs (Live) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Let me tell y'all what it's like
Being male, middle-class, and white
It's a bitch, if you don't believe
Listen up to my new CD
Sham on

[Verse 2]
I got shit runnin' through my brain
It's so intense that I can't explain
All alone in my white-boy pain
Shake your booty while the band complains, yeah!

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm rockin' the suburbs
Just like Michael Jackson did
I'm rockin' the suburbs
Except that he was talented
I'm rockin' the suburbs
I take the checks and face the facts
That some producer with computers fixes all my shitty tracks, all right

[Verse 3]
I'm pissed off, but I'm too polite
When people break in the McDonald's line
Mom and Dad you made me so uptight
I'm gonna cuss on the mic tonight

I don't know how much I can take
Girl, give me something I can break

[Chorus]
I'm rockin' the suburbs
Just like William Shatner does
I'm rockin' the suburbs
Except that he is talented
I'm rockin' the suburbs
I take the checks and face the facts
That some producer with computers fixes all my shitty tracks
God damn!

[Verse 4]
In a haze these days
When I pull up to the stop light
I can feel that something's not right
I can feel that someone's blasting me with hate
And bass
Sendin' dirty vibes my way
'Cause my great great great great Grandad
Made someone's great great great great Grandaddies slaves
It wasn't my idea
It wasn't my idea
Never was my idea

I just drove to the store
For some Preparation-H
Ouch

[Bridge]
Y'all don't know what it's like
Being male, middle-class and white
Y'all don't know what it's like
Being male, middle-class and white
Y'all don't know what it's like
Being male, middle-class and white
Y'all don't know what it's like
Being male, middle class and white

It gets me real pissed off, it makes me wanna say
It gets me real pissed off, and it makes me wanna say
It gets me real pissed off, and it makes me wanna say
It gets me real pissed off, and it makes me wanna say
FUCK!

[Chorus]
Just like Henry Rollins did
I'm rockin' the suburbs
Except that he's shown off talent
I'm rockin' the suburbs
I take the checks and face the facts
That some producer with computers fixes all my shitty, all my shitty tracks

Yeah yeah
I'm rockin' the suburbs
Uh!
I'm rockin' the suburbs
Ohhh

[Outro]
You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck'
You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck'
You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck'
You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck'
You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck'
You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck'
You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck'
You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck'
You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck'
You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck'
You better watch out, because I'm gonna say 'Fuck'
You better watch out
FUCK!!!!!!
FUCK YOU
Ohh, ohh, feel my pain
How's it feel for you
Oh, fuck you
Waa, waa, waa

[Spoken]
All right, Los Ange-lees!
You know my friends they asked me
"Where are you playing this weekend?"
And I said to them, "Los Ange-lees"
And they said, "What? Los Angeles is for pussies!"
And I said like, "Blow me, 'cause Los Angeles fuckin' rocks!!!!"
